Excerpt from No Hero
I should be sorry to deny it, I am sure, for not to this day do I know what I did say on the occasion to which she evidently re ferred. But was it kind to break the silence of years with such a reference? Was it even quite decent in Catherine to ignore my ex istence until I could be of use to her, and then to ask the favour in her first breath? It was true, as she went on to remind me, that we were more or less connected after all, and at least conceivable that no one else could help her as I could, if I would. In any case, it was a certain satisfaction to hear that Cath erine herself was of the last Opinion. I read on. She was in a difficulty; but she did not say what the difficulty was. For one um worthy moment the thought oi money entered my mind, to be ejected the next, as the Cath erine of old came more and more into the mental focus. Pride was the last thing in which I had found her wanting, and her letter indicated no change in that respect.

Excerpt from No Hero
Has no writer ever dealt with the dramatic aspect of the unopened envelope? I cannot recall such a passage in any of my authors, and yet to my mind there is much matter for philosophy in what is always the expressionless shell of a boundless possibility. Your friend may run after you in the street, and you know at a glance whether his news is to be good, bad, or indifferent; but in his handwriting on the breakfast-table there is never a hint as to the nature of his communication.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces Duncan Clephane, a war veteran with wounds that have left him using canes to walk. He receives a letter from an old friend, Catherine Evers, who enlists his help with a personal matter. Duncan travels to a Swiss hotel where he is tasked with keeping an eye on Catherineâs son, Robin, who has apparently become infatuated with an older woman named Mrs. Lascelles. Upon his arrival at the hotel, Duncan discovers that Robin and Mrs. Lascelles have a mutual interest in mountain climbing. Despite the hotel staff and fellow guests gossiping about Robin and Mrs. Lascelles, Duncan is at first skeptical about the rumors and insinuations. However, after witnessing their undeniable chemistry and intimacy, he begins to question Mrs. Lascellesâ intentions and the genuine nature of her interest in Robin. Duncan realizes that the situation is more complicated than it seems and that there may be more to Mrs. Lascelles and her relationship with Robin than meets the eye. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
